Just inside the Dog Chapel, the Remembrance Wall is a place to post photos of and letters to beloved dogs that have died. If you look closely at the photo, you'll see that someone even misses Fang.

Whether or not you've ever had a special bond with a dog, you can't help but be touched by the love and respect conveyed in the words of dog owners who have had to say "good-bye" to a beloved pet.

"Sweet Atlas, you taught me how to love !! I look forward to seeing you again. Love, Mommy"

"To our beautiful 'girl'--Curry. You were the best Lab a family could ever want. We miss your tail wags, smiles and sweet nature. You were such a devoted friend. We'll look forward to seeing you again some day. Love, Mom & Dad"

"Smitty, Thanks for sharing your love and happiness--we miss you--may you run forever in the Vermont Hills."

You can leave behind your own tribute to a dog (or even a cat) when you visit, or, if you can't get to Vermont, photos and remembrances can be mailed to:
Stephen Huneck
1356 Spaulding Road
St. Johnsbury, VT 05819
